Uh, I should've indicated it's okay to be a LITTLE depressed during that time, certainly not to the point that you can't get out of bed. I said that because you might not think you're getting any better on your meds but it could be that you are mixing up normal emotions with abnormal ones (which I do all the time, I always feel like it's inappropriate for me to be upset about anything, even things that are normal to be upset about, because I tend to fly off the handle and get overly emotional -- it makes it hard for me to even know what a normal emotional response is supposed to be like). Basically, it's understandable that anybody would feel like shit in the situation that you're in right now, and no amount of medication or therapy can really make all of those feelings go away

A little late, but I really wanted to answer you, if you don't mind.

I'm sad to hear you went through that, and that's still hard for you. But it's a good thing you're able to manage depression now, and that the meds are working. I don't think it's wrong to be emotional about things... Some people are more sensitive than others, and that's okay. It can be sucky, but (sorry if this sounds right out of a self-help book, I hate those) the capacity for feeling is a great thing, specially if you can channel it into happier ones and creative outlets.

I know meds are a thing of trial and error, but that's very scary for me. I don't like the idea of psychiatrists making a guinea pig out of my brain. I'm scared of the idea of them altering permanently something vital. I'm on Valproic Acid and Risperidone right now, and also Metylphenidate to counteract the absolute unwillingness to be awake that comes from the other two. I'm not a professional, but I do have an amateurish knowledge of psychiatric pharmacology and I know what the side effects of those are :( TBH, I'd rather ditch the psychiatrist, use small doses of therapeutic pot to deal with the anxiety and insomnia, and stay with my psychologist doing psychotherapy.

(I used to be on Venlafaxine for a long time and it fucked me over, it made me want to kill myself and feel electric zaps on my brain. Wellbutrin right out made me hallucinate things and I had the most paranoid two months of my life. And this are supposed to be anti-depressants? FFF.)

I'll try to be more consistent with my excersizing. I'm quite sedentary... I had been trying to take on running, but Valproic Acid messes with my sugar levels and I get tired really easily. Right now I'm trying to at least walk more, but I'd love to be able to run, even get to the point I'd be able to learn parkour some day.

Thank you so much for your long answer <3333 I really appreciate your willingness to listen and give me advice. I'll work hard to get better, ok? *hug* I hope things go well for you too.
